A nutritional trend known as ‘fibermaxxing’ is gaining popularity on social media platforms, where influencers promote high fiber intake to improve gut health, increase satiety, and support cardiovascular wellness. The trend encourages the consumption of diverse plant-based foods, including oats, fruits, vegetables, legumes, seeds, and nuts.
